St. Philip’s has a notable musical tradition, with the basic mission of praising God through voice and instrument. Here is a place to worship through musical excellence, while experiencing wonderful community. With vocal and handbell choirs, the contemporary worship band, and a need for occasional instrumentalists and substitute organists/pianists, there is sure to be a place for every musician.
Bells of Praise
This dedicated volunteer group participates monthly in both worship services. They are also involved in special music events including the Christmas Concert and Music Sunday. Many techniques are included in their ringing, using a full five-octave set of bells and three-octave set of hand chimes. The Bells of Praise welcomes additional ringers at any time during the season. Requirements include a love of music and an interest in fellowship. Rehearsals are Wednesdays from 6:30 – 7:30 p.m.

Worship Band
The Worship Band rehearses on Tuesday evenings from 7:30 – 8:00 p.m., and leads worship every Sunday at the 10:30 a.m. Contemporary service.
f you sing or play an instrument, please make your presence known! We especially need singers. Requirements are to be able to sing in tune and blend well with other singers (you don’t need to be a “soloist”.)
Our desire is that the Worship Band be an organic product of St. Philip’s unique musical personality. We want to make good use of the gifts you bring! You may contribute occasionally or more often; we will work with your schedule.
